If you really want an answer, please don't post twice the same things. Seems to me like your emulating a driver, or something Confused | :confused:

? I might write crap, but I don't think that OpenGL or DirectX are the cause of the not functionning of your SendInput, but i think that the games themselves maybe do not use the input stream the same way as "normal" windows based apps. So it seems to me like you will have to write a _real_ driver ... Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

How could I manage a app according with the user profile logged in a Server Operational System ??
I need functions to get the current profile name and get the directories of all user profiles.

Thanks,
Cris.

Ok, Andreas ... Thanks !!

But, Do you know where could I take the 'userenv.h' file ? And abount Windows CE, these functions have compatibility ?

Thanks a lot ...

You will need to install an more recent Platform SDK to get the right includes and libs.
And for Windows CE, I dont find any reference that these functions are available there. I think that this is only NT/W2k/XP, all others dont manage user profiles AFAIK.

Property Sheet in Toolbar

Has anyone coded ro get a Property sheet on the Toolbar. The idea behind this is to categorise the Toolbar buttons and place each category buttons in separate property pages of the PRoperty sheet. This will avoid the expansion of the Tool bar to some extent when new tool bar buttons are added. This feature is available in JBuider or Java Forte IDEs.
Thanks in advance for your response.

Create a worker thread in main.
When starting the worker, call CreateDialog to create the modeless as in the article. Then write the message loop and catch there all the messages you throw from the dialog. All this stuff in the worker's handler...
Then you could synchronize the worker with the main, using the system dedicated objects.

Generally, when you call CreateDialog from a thread with NULL as the parent window, the modeless' messages will be droped in that thread's message loop.

tray icon problem

r i s h a b h s18-Dec-02 23:14

18-Dec-02 23:14

i have an mfc dialog based app.
in the initInstance function, I'm creating an object of the dialog box (provided by the wizard) and creating a tray icon using NotifyIconData.(without showing the dialog box).

NOW i want to show this dialog box when i right click on this icon but multiple instances of dialog box appear even if i move my mouse over the icon, while i have used WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK in the code below (InitInstance)?

how do i go about it?
this is my src code

CSchdDlg dlg;

m_NotifyIconData.cbSize = sizeof m_NotifyIconData;
m_NotifyIconData.hWnd =dlg.GetSafeHwnd();
m_NotifyIconData.uID = 1;
m_NotifyIconData.uCallbackMessage = WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK ;
m_NotifyIconData.uFlags = NIF_MESSAGE|NIF_ICON|NIF_TIP;
m_NotifyIconData.hIcon = LoadIcon(IDR_MAINFRAME);
strcpy(m_NotifyIconData.szTip, AfxGetAppName());

Shell_NotifyIcon(NIM_ADD, &m_NotifyIconData);

a quick & detailed response will be heartly appreciated!

thanx

This is what works for me:

#define UWM_ICONNOTIFY WM_APP+x

BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CMyDlg, CDialog)
//...
ON_MESSAGE(UWM_ICONNOTIFY, OnSystemTrayIconNotify)
//...
END_MESSAGE_MAP()

LRESULT CMyDlg::OnSystemTrayIconNotify(WPARAM, LPARAM lParam)
{
switch (lParam)
{
case WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK:
// do something
// etc.
}
return 0;
}

// Initialize system tray icon
//
m_nid.cbSize = sizeof(NOTIFYICONDATA);
m_nid.hWnd = m_hWnd;
m_nid.uID = ID_SYSTEMTRAYICON;
m_nid.uFlags = NIF_ICON | NIF_MESSAGE | NIF_TIP;
m_nid.uCallbackMessage = UWM_ICONNOTIFY;
m_nid.hIcon = (HICON)LoadImage(AfxGetInstanceHandle(), MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_MYTRAYICON), IMAGE_ICON, 16, 16, 0);
strcpy(m_nid.szTip, "Blah, blah");
Shell_NotifyIcon(NIM_ADD, &m_nid);

can u be a bit more specific with ur code.

how to get the :-
ON_MESSAGE(UWM_ICONNOTIFY, OnSystemTrayIconNotify)

in the message map declaration

I suppose a Class Wizard has created a
BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CYourDialog, CDialog)...END_MESSAGE_MAP()
sequence for CYourDialog.
Using your editor, paste a line
ON_MESSAGE(UWM_ICONNOTIFY, OnSystemTrayIconNotify)
there (for example just below the BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP() macro line).
Avoid a temptation to put it somewhere between
//{{AFX_MSG_MAP(CYourDialog)
//}}AFX_MSG_MAP
since Class Wizard might get confused.
Insert the declaration of your icon message handler OnSystemTrayIconNotify
into CYourDialog class. Like this:
afx_msg LRESULT OnSystemTrayIconNotify(WPARAM, LPARAM);

That's all.

Setting uCallbackMessage = WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK causes that message to be sent every time the mouse pointer is over the tray icon.
You need to specify your own message and handle that in a subclassed WindowProc.
Like:

#define WM_NOTIFY_ICON		(WM_USER + 10)	//+10 because some of the first may be used.

m_NotifyIconData.uCallbackMessage = WM_NOTIFY_ICON;

LRESULT MyDlg::WindowProc(UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam) 
{
	// TODO: Add your specialized code here and/or call the base class
	switch(message)
	{
	case WM_NOTIFY_ICON:
		switch (lParam)
		{
		case WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK:
			ShowWindow(SW_SHOWNORMAL);
			TRACE("> Left mouse button double-clicked on icon.\n");
			SetForegroundWindow();	// Window to front if behind other windows.
			break;					// This is used when the app is not minimized,
									// but hidden behind other windows.
		default:
			break;
		}
		break;

	default:
		break;
	}
	return CDialog::WindowProc(message, wParam, lParam);
}

Cheers,
Fredrik

Use the Class Wizard to subclass the WindowProc of your dialog.
